What is a Kit Home?

A kit-home or kit-house can
be a small and compact one bedroom home or as large as a 5 bedroom
home where all the components necessary to build are done off site
and delivered ready for assemble by a builder or an owner builder.
All the materials have been cut to size and everything needed for
the construction is packaged to suit the “KIT” design you have chosen.

Why Buy a Kit Home?

Buying a kit-home from the Nova Group is cost effective and economical
whether its a home to live in or for an investment dwelling.
As an owner builder, the saving can be as much as 40% compared to
buying a house off the plan involving a construction building company.

We take pride in the fact that we work with you to achieve what
you are looking for and then price the home to meet your budget
because we have buying power, a great relationship with our suppliers
and keep our overheads low.

Advantages of a Kit Home

A great advantage in purchasing a kit home is that it can be
ordered in stages.

For the owner builder this option is great as we work within
the builders time frame and budget (within reason).

Building to a Lock up allows you to become involved in the building
process. Its a economical win win situation.

Nova
kit homes are designed by a leading architect and have been engineered
to the highest standard to provide you with the best value for money.
They are manufactured to Australian Standards to meet all climate
conditions from the north of Cooktown to the south of Victoria,
as well as from Perth to Sydney.

Owner Builder

There are great advantages to becoming an owner builder,
not least being affordability (against engaging a builder) and
flexibility (build in your time when the money is available).Read more..

Owner Build
Engaging contractors

An
owner builder permit
provides you a license to build 1 dwelling only. As such, it
is your responsibility to hire contractors such as a plumber
and electricians to sign off on all work carried out. Before
engaging a contractor, do your homework and make sure they are
fully qualified to do the job. As tempting as it might seem,
it is not a good idea to use a mate. As the builder you are
ultimately responsible. Current Affair constantly highlights
the need for careful due diligence when engaging trades people.

Perfect Small Retreat

Why opt for a retirement village purchase that
erodes the family inheritance and keeps the family apart when
building a granny flat is a cheaper option?

From the Designers Desk:

Simplicity and minimalism in architecture really
works. Some architects go over-board to make a name for themselves
with designs which are inappropriate and will not stand the
test of time.

Pool Fencing for Australians – check your
Council legislation

Almost half of all drowning deaths in the 0-5
year age group occur in backyard swimming pools, so pool fencing
has an important role to play in preventing these tragic deaths.

There are slightly different fencing requirements
for pools depending on when and where the pool was installed,
and it is good advice to make enquiries with the local Council
to ensure your fence complies with legislation.

Hanging a shelf made easy

Adding shelving to as room is like making good
use of prime real estate. When we consider that a room normally
has 4 walls it makes good sense to use this some of this valuable
space for creating shelves for stuff that might otherwise end
up limiting the space we have on the floor or bench area.

Applying splash back tiles

Splashback tiles truly finish off a tiling
section. Especially where the major theme of the bathroom or
laundry area is to use white tiles, bringing in another colour
using feature tiles uplifts the area.
